About this project

What does Blaze Map add?

Full Blaze Map logo

Blaze Map is your extensible, open source mapping mod. On top of the basic duties of mapping the world with both a minimap and world map view, Blaze Map is designed to be easy for other mods to add their own custom maps and mapping data.

Minimap in a savannah village

Features for Blaze Map users:

Multiple default map types
- Aerial View
- Terrain Height
Multiple toggleable layers of information per map type
World Map to get a wider view of your world (B)
- Export an "atlas" view of the World Map (F12)
Configurable minimap
- Click-and-drag resizing/repositioning (shift + B)

No cheaty cave view!
- (Ok, this is more of a lack-of-unwanted-feature for now. But there are plans to add a cave view eventually and it will not be able to x-ray into unexplored areas!)

Comparing Different Map Type & Layer Combinations

Features for mod and modpack developers wishing to integrate:

Fully open source: Blaze Map on GitHub
Friendly devs who love to help and rarely bite: Discord

Integration with Minecraft's in-build performance profiling tools (F3 + L)

- We also dogfood our API via our own Blaze Map addon mod, Cartography
Separation of data representation of the world from the visual representation of the world, allowing for more complex visualisations
Flexible tools for representing data on the map
Can move data processing off of the main thread to minimise performance impact
